Eminem's oldest rival brutally responds to new diss track that reignited 20 year old feud
Nothing is certain in life except death, taxes and rappers thinking they can take on Eminem.
If hip hop history has taught us anything, do not go after Slim Shady.
You only have to go back to 2018, when Eminem made Machine Gun Kelly pretty much change genres after responding to his diss track 'Rap Devil'.
However, it seems that one hip hop beef that started in 2002 still quite hasn't been squashed.

That year, The Source magazine - which Benzino was a co-owner of - gave Eminem's album The Eminem Show a 4/5 rating.
In 2023, the magazine owner admitted to purposely not giving the record a perfect score.
And over the past 20 years, their feud inspired multiple songs from each, including Benzino's 'Pull Your Skirt Up' and 'Die Another Day' and Eminem's 'The Sauce' and 'Nail in the Coffin'.
Now, the complicated feud with Benzino was reignited on track 'Doomsday Pt. 2,' which appeared on Lyrical Lemonade's new album All Is Yellow on Friday.
On the diss track, Eminem, 51, takes aim at the rapper-producer, 58.
He raps: "What is the opposite of Benzino? A giraffe / 'Go at his neck,' How the f**k is that? / How can I go at somethin' he doesn't have.
"Arm so short he can't even touch his hands / When they're above his head doin' jumpin' jacks."
Eminem also call out Benzino's financial struggles while also taking a shot at his daughter.
Benzino has now hit back at Eminem on new song 'Vulturius', where he mocks Shady’s drug overdose and the death of his late friend Proof.
He rapped: "Candy-ass Eminem, b***h-ass feminine/ Mad he lack melanin, all Valium’d up again.
"Aw, s**t, here we go, Benzino vs. Jim Crow/ Know a custy when I see one, how many times you overdose?"
Adding: “Cracker on crack who rap/ But hate Black and it shows/ Invade our culture then insult us/ Time you get exposed.”
Mocking Proof's death he said: "You a punk, plan my funeral? Please, you shoot who?/ Square ain’t even go circle the block for Proof.”
He then questions Eminem's sexuality, which shouldn't even be an insult in 2024 to be honest.
“Trailer park swine b***h, shit, you’re miserable and you’re alone/ And we think that they cloned you/ You look weird, don’t care how much Just For Men they put on you/ Never seen with a girl, never seen with a b***h/ But got a song ‘What If I Was Gay’ with Joyner Lucas.”
In March 2022, Benzino said his beef with Em' was over - it's clearly not.
